2-Year Forecasted Depreciation
*Depreciation for the last 12 months of the private party resale value.
Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.

If you want a practical, handsome hatchback with the athletic driving manners for which European cars are known, all at a digestible price, the 2019 VW Golf was made for you. Driving enthusiasts will love the excellent handling of the GTI, while the Golf R packs even more power and all-wheel drive.
The Golf isn’t offered as a sedan or coupe. If you’re looking for a more traditional body style with a trunk, check out this VW’s sibling, the Jetta sedan, or a rival like the Honda Civic, Mazda3, Kia Forte or Hyundai Elantra. If all-wheel drive is a priority, check out the Subaru Impreza or the larger Golf SportWagen.
